VICE News teamed up with MSF to document these search and rescue missions in the Mediterranean and speak to rescued refugees and migrants, hearing about the suffering they have endured in their attempts to reach a new life.WATCH NEXT: Afghans Are Facing The Toughest Taliban Yet – http://bit.ly/2Q3X58A

Pure smuggling funded by criminal networks. Those NGOs are controlled by criminal smuggling networks pretending to be "humanitarian" and making tons of money by supplying Europe with mainly dangerous young males ready to join the mafias (drugs, robberies, sex trafficking, slave labor). They tell them to not have papers and lie so the process of rejecting assylum (99% are not refugees) take years so they can run their business and crimes free for long.Those smuggling NGOs members should be jailed for trafficking, organised crime, thousands of deaths by inviting people to cross the Mediterranean, for supporting criminal rings involved in rapes even child rapes and prostitution.Whoever supports this thing is responsible for all those crimes and deaths. Mainstream media and politicians like the fake humanitarian stories because they are touchy so they gain more viewers and also can pretend to be on the "humanitarian side" and they don't care that they are supporting crime and deaths. Lastly there is a theory that those NGOs are financed to flood Europe with illegals to destabilise Europe financially, culturally and politically.

It’s all middle aged men they should be fighting to change there country not run. There’s only so much room in Europe and there chancing the rich cultures and efnicaty of a people. Gonna be more crime and more poverty.

Europe native population is declining and immigrants and refugees population is increasing at a high rate after some time we can see that European culture and traditions are now becoming endangered all that was covered up in a white guilt . Why these refugees wanted to go to Europe by go through the long sea route so desperately why did they not go to middle east and Asia and also African Continent is also very big there are lot of big countries that are as big as the size of UK, France, Germany ,Sweden etc. They don't want to take their own black brothers but white people are so open minded by white pride which their ancestors proudly fought and give them the idea of enlightenment ,secularism and democracy .I Don't have a problem with refugees but their Corrupted governments have failed their own people because of lack of living standard ,oppression of democratic principles the homogenous African refugees wants to go to heterogeneous Christian Europe .

Is there anybody here like me who crossed the Mediterranean sea in june 2014?This people are very lucky that the rescue group caught them at the libyan territory.Thanks a lot for the great humanity reactions!!!!One thing that make me laugh was when that lady asked them if they speaks French or English,then one of the migrants said English is "Haram"😂😂!Why it's Haram stupid ass??? They're there to save your life for free because they're blessed people and go use your stereotypes at your home not outside.

Why do the emigrants specifically emigrate to Germany and Sweden? Why not any of the neighbor countries like, Iran, Israel, Yemen, Turkey, Romania, Bulgaria, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, India, Pakistan or Russia where there is plenty of peaceful areas? Including Spain and USA. Why specifically Germany and Sweden? The answer is obvious and logical, they want the welfare, solid infrastructure, cars, washing machines, white women, free education, free hospital service, TV, and most of all the high payment check on welfare. That is the truth! Exit EU!

Vai a Casa Nero!That's Italian. It says to go home black man.Since the 1960's, Africans have been pushing out the whites, over 80,000 deaths in South Africa.And the Africans say, "Go Home White Man."Which is now our turn to say, "GO HOME BLACK MAN!!!!!!!"

No women and children says it all , I appreciate the fact that they could drown but pick them up and take them back to the country they sailed from , at the rate Europe is turning into a third world shit hole.

What I really think is that they should be allowed to enter any country that they want. As long as they go trough some kind of education to learn how to live in a new society. It's really unfair that they have to go through slavery etc because of the shit governments. And they really should get a chance in other countries. But if we just accept people that have no clue and enters the country. Then we will have chaos of people not understanding what to do. And what's wrong and good. So this is why these rescue firms should really take these people to som sort of education school first. And if they succsed on general social skills. Then I feel like they should get into the country.

The good ol creat the problem and the supply solution at work.the usa is part of the creation of refugees to use for invading other countries.this they do together with the elite parasites theire puppet goverments and cia and other criminal organizations.the purpose to use immigrants to destablize.and conquer.NEW WORLD ORDER BABY

The usa is the biggest reason for the suffering of these people and many others they purposely destablized lybia,because gadafy wanted to drop the us dollar and create theire own strong independent economy

Mass migration from Africa and Middle East is destroying Europe. Yes Europe should help these who needs it but i dont want people like that impolite "madam" from the end of document….in this way are thinking many migrants….its just too much different culture and Europe is much more developed in almost everything included behavior. But its problem of EU. I think its good to take these people but its necessary to educate them, they should have obligation to learn official language of country where are they going to live and english, learn basic laws and rules of polite behaving, they must also work and they should be more monitored from beginning and if somebody from them breaks the laws he/she should be sent where he comes from. Some states have big problems with migrants now. I am thankful to my government that they take only some of migrants and they are integrated to society in good way. Not perfect but good. I personally know one syrian refugee . There are many good migrants like him. But there are many people who dont know how to behave in Europe and dont respect our culture and arogantly live their lives like before and its destroying our culture and way of life in some states where is too many migrants. YES to helping but NO to uncontrolled mass migration to Europe.

This is why i rather watch vice, because they show both sides of the story, mean while the bbc and cnn our making these people look like they cause threats to the economy, thank you vice for educating the people about current affairs

It is good if these people bide to the country's law and settle…. We cannot trust these muslim peoples… When they need help they will go down and take it… Once they are settled they will turn against the country which helped them

If only America had a asylum or immigration system like this. A lot of people are not dangerous, they are just afraid people looking for a better place. Sadly, some countries in Africa had corrupt leaders who just want money for them. Some people are starving, someone people are homeless, some people are going through a lot. NOT ALL OF AFRICA IS LIKE THAT! Still, I just wished that people had hearts to care and open their arms to people who need it.

"women and children" first… Children Yes!!! … women…… hell nah… they can go last, their lives are no more important than any man on that ship! chivalry is dead , because bitches killed it.>> #leykis101

I thought these people were supposed to be downtrodden and poor. Whats with the partying atmosplane. Looks to me as though they're 'aving a great laugh. And-,and, each one of them paid hundreds of pounds to traffickers. Were did they get the money from? In England you'd be lucky to afford a train fare.
